Oldies Mixtape 106: Jesus Rocks

Monday June 12, 2006
Pop songs about Jesus have always made brief but important forays into the Top 40 on occasion... but the early Seventies were perhaps the golden period for Christian pop. Gospel musical influences, loss of hope and a need for spiritual grounding led many to create testaments to the Christian faith -- or at the very least, hit songs that mined a general religious vibe. This playlist features 19 songs from that era, most of which you can download legally right here.
